Christmas is almost here. It's one of the most prettiest and cosiest times of the year and pretty flowers have everything to do with that. Christmas is a creative time, where you're able to style your home and your furniture to compliment the feel associated with Christmas. Reds, greens and whites are the most popular colours this season and a great way to implement this into your home or workplace is through floral arrangements. Flowers add charm to any space and what I like about Christmas bouquets is that they are complimented with extras such as pine cones, holly and mistletoe. Flowers also make wonderful presents as they represent magic, romance and friendship.

Celebrate Christmas this year with a bouquet from Australian based, Flowers For Everyone. Their florals range from Australian native wild flowers and evergreen wreaths to tropical flower arrangements brimming with lilies, roses and lovely red berries. Fresh fruit hampers, Belgian chocolates and ECOYA home fragrances are also splendidly available and great to offer as a gift for that special someone.

Porto, the second largest city in Portugal which is renowned for its beautiful Douro Valley and wine has a very interesting and delightful design project called Covet House. This project is set in the Douro region and it aims to deliver a live, human experience of some of the best furniture brands that Portugal has to offer. The benefit of the location is that visitors get to see the breathtaking views of the Douro river and the architecture of the building itself. There is quite a nice selection of luxury design pieces such as Boca do Lobo, DelightFULL, Luxxu, BRABBU and Koket. Covet House portrays the history and journey of Portuguese design and is a wonderful place to source great inspiration.

Christmas wreaths come in all different colours and sizes. They vary from traditional to glamorous, and small details can make all the difference. I have been challenged by Harveys Furniture to create a jewelled festive decoration and below is my take on a jewelled Christmas wreath.

Jewelled wreaths are particularly captivating and can stylishly modernise your home. Wreaths are a very versatile Christmas decoration as they can be added to your Christmas styled vignette or placed in any room to add a touch of Christmas charm. Christmas LED lights can also be placed around the wreath to add even more sparkle. Bring some glamour to your Christmas decorations with this simple tutorial to create your own sparkling Christmas Wreath.

YOU WILL NEED:

• Polystyrene Wreath

• Mini Pine Cones

• Crystal Acrylic Stones

• PVA Glue

• Silver Glitter Spray

• Ribbon, for the bow

STEP BY STEP:

Step 1 - Choose the size of your polystyrene wreath. It can be as big or as small as you like. If you're opting for a larger wreath more accessories such as pine cones and acrylic stones will be needed.

DALI, Danish Audiophile Loudspeaker Industries have just launched a stunningly new portable, battery powered bluetooth speaker, which delivers such an incredibly beautiful sound.

The DALI KATCH is magnificently designed, in a compact chassis, elegantly wrapped in beautifully coloured solid casing. It's available in three different colour schemes, Green Moss, Dark Shadow and Cloud Grey, being my favourite.

Aside from the miraculous and incredibly gorgeous design, what I love about the DALI KATCH is that it's portable. I've been able to take my DALI KATCH everywhere with me from friends houses to road trips. It's perfect for parties as the sound emitted from such a compact piece of design is outstanding. It's definitely one of the best designed loudspeakers I have seen this year!
